GPS "Theory"

V10.5 about to drop and I spent half the day working on my "GPS Theory"

Well, here goes anyway...

Bug: Phone no longer enters deep sleep after using GPS

Repro steps:

1. After a fresh reboot, start CPU Spy and clear stats

2. Wait 5 minutes, with the screen off, to allow it to deep sleep. Check CPU Spy to make sure phone is entering deep sleep properly.

3. Start an app that uses the actual GPS, not just location services (i.e. GPS Test/ Angry GPS/Maps)

4. Exit the app from step 3 but do not shut off hardware GPS (GPS should sleep on it's own)

5. Open CPU Spy and clear stats.

6. Wait 5 minutes, with the screen off, to allow it to deep sleep. Check CPU Spy to see if the phone has been able to deep sleep.​

I read that someone was having a problem with their phone not sleeping on V10 after charging. I have had no problem with my phone sleeping after pulling it off the charger AS LONG AS I didn't use the GPS. I had a feeling that GPS was getting stuck and keeping my phone awake, and if you take a careful look at the battery screenshot, you will see me "theory" in action. Every time I activated GPS, my phone would no longer deep sleep and you can see a precipitous drain in battery. After the third attempt/trial, I was able to get an actual lock (in airplane mode) after which my phone was able to deep sleep (after shutting GPS off). Once I observed that my phone was not able to deep sleep after each GPS test, a simple reboot was all that was needed to re-enable deep sleep.

I don't know what any of this means, nor do I have any idea how to fix it. I'm simply putting my findings out there for someone smarter than me to possibly fix (here's looking at you, Neo/eugene373!).

Edit: And, of course, when I went to upload the screenshot, my phone was off (it apparently didn't like me connecting it to the usb...). Once it reboots, I will post screenshot.

Edit: DONE

As a side note, does anyone know why some screenshots are 800x480 (like they should be) and some (like mine) are 640x360?
[Vibrant Android Development] atrocks:
Anybody have issue with mounting SD card on PC with v10?
[Vibrant Android Development] 12paq:
Hey Neo!

Nicely done.

Thanks.

@theexel- looks awesome as always

@you guys posting about batteries - do it. I bought the 1800 and charger combo from amazon, legit Samsung product with holograms. Now I can fully discharge one Batt and swap with fully recharged. Seems to have made the old 1500 better as well since its properly charged instead if popping quick charges in the car or wherever to keep on keeping on. Think it was $35 I'll get the model # if anyone's interested.
[Vibrant Android Development] neobuddy89:
OP updated to 10.5

Please read installation steps and changelog before proceeding.

FYI, read changelog for GPS issues on v10.
[Vibrant Android Development] :
So Neo, do you guys know what was/is the source of the mute/unmute problem? Why is it so vexing?
[Vibrant Android Development] L1LK1LLERZ:
Letting the v10.5 settle ;)
[Vibrant Android Development] neobuddy89:
Not really. But we did some changes in this ROM to see if that bug still exist or not.

These changes were made on basis of observation made by one of our vibrant community member on FB group.

We are still not sure due to variable results. Do test and let us know.
[Vibrant Android Development] TFordham:
DL now. Very excited. Mute issue has been my only real problem. Will let you know.
[Vibrant Android Development] 12paq:
Nice to see Annex's work ICS style!

I was wondering why this looked so slick. Now I know.

Thanks Annex!
[Vibrant Android Development] kjdiehl:
Neo, would you please confirm whether this is a no-wipe update as planned for.

Thanks!
[Vibrant Android Development] neobuddy89:
It is no-wipe update.

Read installation steps.
[Vibrant Android Development] DonutYankee:
I have still yet to have the Mute/Unmute problem. Didn't have it on v8 or v9 or v9.1 or v9.2 or v10. Odd.
[Vibrant Android Development] jamesgg:
Weird, I thought I was special a few days back. But people starting complaining I was breaking up, and could not hear me properly. Once I mute and unmute all is well. Of course this is for incoming calls only.
[Vibrant Android Development] ebpfdane:
fo shizzle my neo-izzle!
[Vibrant Android Development] thantik:
I've resorted to using Tasker and using a "Phone Off Hook" event, and toggling mute audio, waiting 200ms, and then toggling mute audio again. Solves my problems. Maybe this can be a built-in scripted thing.
[Vibrant Android Development] samuelasmith201086:
10.5 is taking a long time to download!!!
[Vibrant Android Development] radiohd:
Thanks very much for this awesome rom and all the hours of work you put into it. Before this came out I was planning to buy a new phone, mostly because of the GPS and Samsungs lack of upgrade support. You shot down both of those justifications for shelling out a bunch of money for a new Nexus. I'm a gadget guy and love watching the hardware wars going in smatphone tech but I think there should be more going on with usability/funtionality. Do I really need four cores?

Thanks again.

One wish

Since the G1 I've been frustrated with the transition from running apps to being a phone. I want the phone to be easy to get into and out of and for it to trump all other processes. I wish these smart"phones" were better at being phones. If there were one button that should be on every smartphone it should be a dedicated "be a phone" button, duh. I don't know how many times I've yelled "BE A PHONE!!" at these things.
[Vibrant Android Development] jdcooper:
Hey guys, im looking for a CW ROM manager .apk that is compatible with eclair 2.1 its been taken off the market in that version, I need it to get my beloved ICS passion back in a bad way, this Eclair is from the stone ages, however battety life is AMAZING ha ha.
[Vibrant Android Development] ebpfdane:
Looonng download, I think we're all pulling at the same time. I'm going to odin to lidroid before this flash as I've had some reboot probs in v10 that no one else seems to have had. I've odinned back to stock lots but never to lidroid. Does anyone have any advice or tips ( other than in the op which I have read :) ). Thanks
[Vibrant Android Development] neobuddy89:
If you have odined to stock, see the video linked in the OP.
[Vibrant Android Development] ebpfdane:
Thanks neo, meant that I've done it in the past. Gonna lidroid from v10 before this flash because I had the stupid reboot during active call thing. Thought that speakerphone was immune but found out today it wasn't. If you don't think its necessary then I won't bother. btw just sent another $10.5 to the team, hope lots of others are as well!
[Vibrant Android Development] jsparakov:
I know it's no surprise, but GPS is still having issues v10.5. I would not assume that you can do much about it thanks to Samsung. The lock times are amazing when it works, though! NeoBuddy, you're doing the best you can with weird/crappy hardware.

Details:

-Followed details on how to install v10.5 (so, it got to settle)

-In GPS test, angryGPS, maps: between each app, I was able to disable and re-enable the GPS and get a lock. Cold lock took literally 3 seconds!

-Disabled GPS (if that really matters), turned off screen, left my phone alone for 20 min. to do something else.

-Came back, tried to lock onto GPS the same way with GPS test. The icon doesn't blink, waited for a long time, exited out of app. Tried angryGPS and GPS test again, icon no longer appears. As we all know, this is typical of the GPS after using it once. It will work again if I use it right away after booting. Using it a long time after boot may or may not work from my accounts.

So it's still remarkable considering the situation. At this point, getting the GPS to work is a minor inconvenience consisting of rebooting the phone and using it right away once it loads up. With the new booting times, it's even less of a inconvenience! Let me know if I can give you any logs/data for you to sift through, I'd be happy to help if you think there's a chance.
[Vibrant Android Development] airhop7:
Do we have to wipe for 10.5 update?
[Vibrant Android Development] neobuddy89:
No, sir XDA premium user. :D
[Vibrant Android Development] kandi_kid:
Thanks so much nb for all your hard work, I love this rom :)
[Vibrant Android Development] mailboy1412:
If you update from v10 , no need,

if you come from anything else, yes, you need to wipe.
[Vibrant Android Development] ebpfdane:
Do we have to wipe for 10.5 update?

no but disable any setcpu type apps...check the op quick
[Vibrant Android Development] :
Alright Neo, once again thank you very much for the amazing job you guys are doing! I myself am going to wipe anyways, just to be safe (and because I can't believe how fast crap accumulates on my phone...)
[Vibrant Android Development] Dandroid4g:
Is 10.5 an incremental update or a full rom?
[Vibrant Android Development] TFordham:
As usual, fantastic work. Unfortunately, at least for me, the mute bug is still present.
[Vibrant Android Development] neobuddy89:
Both.

Read OP for how to install.
[Vibrant Android Development] SlakWReX:
Me too ever since 6.5
[Vibrant Android Development] L1LK1LLERZ:
I never got that issue...
[Vibrant Android Development] neobuddy89:
Please be patient. That bug will be solved.

If not in 10.5.... sooner!
[Vibrant Android Development] SlakWReX:
Trust me I'm in no hurry your awesome.
[Vibrant Android Development] TFordham:
Don't get me wrong, I can hit mute. Not a problem. You guys and your talents will have it resolved soon enough.
[Vibrant Android Development] SlakWReX:
Lucky man. Its a weird bug you would think everyone would have it. It varies from vibrant to vibrant. Maybe different batches. Something with peoples GPS they don't all work the same.
[Vibrant Android Development] L1LK1LLERZ:
Yeah, I guess I lucked out on that lol. And, I don't even use GPS, so nbd for me lol.
[Vibrant Android Development] ebpfdane:
Hey Neo- Who is Ayesha? How do you get any work done when she's around? Meow! ;););)
[Vibrant Android Development] neobuddy89:
Lol... don't get excited.

That's pic of superstar - "Deepika Padukone" and not her. :p
[Vibrant Android Development] ebpfdane:
I would like to share an ice cream sandwich with her!
[Vibrant Android Development] lemmyslender:
neobuddy

Does this rom have ipv6 enabledon the mobile data side? Tmobile is running a trial in the US for ipv6. Currently, I only get an ipv4 connection. Not a big deal just curious.

Love the rom, runs great on my vibrant. Thanks for all the hard work.
[Vibrant Android Development] groggycl:
feel like and idiot... again.. haha

I can't enter download mode. I wanna flash 10.5 but finally install GB bootloaders before doing that, how can I do it?

THANKS!
[Vibrant Android Development] flexxoo:
neo how can i get the toogle shortcut that was in the home screen,because i delete it and i cant find it in the app drawer????
[Vibrant Android Development] jzero88:
Hey neo,

Why do we have to flash the GB bootloaders to install this ROM?
[Vibrant Android Development] derride8:
I believe it's in the widgets section.
[Vibrant Android Development] neobuddy89:
It was shortcut I coded inside the launcher.

Maybe clearing launcher data will get you default screens.

Read OP. I have explained there.
[Vibrant Android Development] VeryCoolAlan:
Does Titanium Backup work?

I used V2 and it didn't work... By not working. I mean....... You go and restore app and and says restore complete but nothing has been restored!
[Vibrant Android Development] Robert8457:
Does anyone else flash stop working I uninstalled and now it says my device isn't compatible.
[Vibrant Android Development] androidmonkey:
I thought the Mute & Unmute bug was fixed in 10.5 ?
[Vibrant Android Development] neobuddy89:
v10.0 had market bug.

It's fixed in v10.5.

If you already have flash installed, uninstall it and reinstall on v10.5

Although, mine is working quite well.
[Vibrant Android Development] neobuddy89:
Nope. It isn't.

Still in process.
[Vibrant Android Development] ebpfdane:
Very Cool Dude- I've been using it on every version with no problems. With the bigger updates I try to be careful not to include data..I do have the paid version, don't know if that makes a difference...
[Vibrant Android Development] larrisa12002:
Its out. Kernel patched to 3.0.15

http://www.droid-tech.net/vibrant-a...buddy89-ics-passion-rom-vibrant.html#post2101
[Vibrant Android Development] ebpfdane:
Stoopid question,

Are theexels battery mods cool with this rom? I love v2, but last build I was one of the lucky ones that lost the notification bar and it was a ***** to get back. anyone pop it in yet?

EDIT-- Flashed mod and is a thing of beauty... thanks exel
[Vibrant Android Development] Kwaii49:
Tried it, I liked it a lot but in my opinion it needs to be smoother and faster. While using setcpu to over clock the fastest it could run it would reboot if i was multitasking. With 1000 being the Max in setcpu it never reboots. The ROM is beta so its pretty good so far.
[Vibrant Android Development] androidmonkey:
What brand is the battery you bought? Store?

Do you have a link? How much?
[Vibrant Android Development] dcaples002:
Does the Kernel in this Rom have Voodoo color? If not, can someone link me to the FuguMod Kernel if compatible?
[Vibrant Android Development] SlakWReX:
Battery mods worked for me. On 10.5
[Vibrant Android Development] airhop7:
Dude use Eugene's kernel for voodoo color if you want it :)
[Vibrant Android Development] dcaples002:
Can you link me to it?

If you don't feel like it just tell me the name and I'll find it myself.
[Vibrant Android Development] airhop7:

[Vibrant Android Development] airhop7:
Dude Neo you rock its so nice that I put down my s2 just to use this one :)
[Vibrant Android Development] SlakWReX:
Can I have a link to the stock kernel for 10.5 pleeease
[Vibrant Android Development] ebpfdane:
@androidmonkey- The 1800 battery is awesome. BIG difference in my opinion. I bought it with an external charger. The charger is what makes the difference imo. Now you are able to fully discharge your battery and pop in a fully charged one (uninterrupted). Without the charger your just going to keep doing the same thing,quick charges here and there to try to keep up. Actually improves your existing battery as well due to proper cycling.

Edit.. This is what to look for on amazon. I paid $32, now its $29. Just make sure you buy direct from amazon not 3rd party. Samsung ET-CGPK009GSTA Sprint SPH-D710 Battery Charger with Stand - Charger - Retail Packaging - Black
[Vibrant Android Development] neobuddy89:
Coming up..
[Vibrant Android Development] SlakWReX:
Thank you I want it just in case. But I'm loving Eugene's kernel. Voodoo color is working flawless.
[Vibrant Android Development] SlakWReX:
Never mind I ran into a problem. The camera looks terrible! Like really bad.
[Vibrant Android Development] ebpfdane:
neo- just googled deepika. she is outstanding!! you should answer her calls!!
[Vibrant Android Development] androidmonkey:
Does that charger come with a battery?
[Vibrant Android Development] ebpfdane:
Is that from eugenes? was it ok before the flash?
[Vibrant Android Development] SlakWReX:
Yes and yes.
[Vibrant Android Development] airhop7:
What do you mean by really bad? Mine is working great!
[Vibrant Android Development] ebpfdane:
yessir, go to amazon and search with one of the model #'s I gave it'll come up
[Vibrant Android Development] vacant:
Quick question: should I re-calibrate my battery (aka run the 'Battery Calibration' app) after upgrading from v10 to 10.5?

Stock Browser closes itself

Are any of you guys having problem with Stock Browser ? Mine randomly close on it own (no force close warning, it just closes itself)
[Vibrant Android Development] SlakWReX:
Is there anyway to get voodoo to apply on boot. It sucks to have to do it every time I turn my phone on.
[Vibrant Android Development] shovelhead83:
Buy it.
[Vibrant Android Development] SAI Peregrinus:
Headset buttons (still) don't work. I know the headset button itself works (tested with a multimeter).

There is no /system/usr/keychars/sec_jack.kcm key character map, and as far as I can tell /system/usr/keylayout/sec_jack.kl should bind key 248 and not 226.

A key test app that displays the keycode and event when a button is pressed does not respond at all to the headset button. The wm8994 driver does seem to have been patched with the same patch used to fix this in CM7.

If there's any debugging info I can give you to help, please let me know.
[Vibrant Android Development] PigProtist:
Any known fix for the camera force closing when you change any of the settings?
[Vibrant Android Development] Burner2K0:
I've been using Deranged RC3 2.2 for a while and I'm seriously tempted to switch to this, is it worth it? If so I'm doing it as soon as possible.
[Vibrant Android Development] mveksler:
Same problem with GPS. After phone goes into deep sleep the GPS stops working. Only reboot will restore it.
[Vibrant Android Development] SlakWReX:
Definitely worth it. And now Eugene has made a kernel with voodoo color and everything is still working.
[Vibrant Android Development] SlakWReX:
I have voodoo control plus but it still resets :(
[Vibrant Android Development] samdroid959:
No, once battery reaches 100% just reboot and it'll calibrate for you, it in the script and also on the OP
[Vibrant Android Development] xriderx66:
I have Voodoo Control Plus and it doesn't reset for me :D I didn't change any settings except RGB multi. and the gamma hax or something.

reinstall maybe?
[Vibrant Android Development] ameedi600:
How would I flash this version, I mean is it a non-wipe version? Also Neo is this rom ever going to get voodoo lagfix.
[Vibrant Android Development] jsparakov:
I'm seconding on this observation. GPS only works 100% of the time when I use it right away after reboot. Not sure if its the deep sleeping that's causing the icon to never appear again after an initial failure (icon without blinking hole shows but never works even after an hour of waiting). I accept the fact that the GPS is weird. Loving this ROM!
[Vibrant Android Development] SlakWReX:
Yes its a no wipe version
[Vibrant Android Development] xriderx66:
you DON'T NEED VOODOO LAGFIX, LAGFIXES ARE FOR THINGS THAT HAVE LAG. omg.
[Vibrant Android Development] xriderx66:
I still have the unresponsive lock screen...

I'm at 100-1000 MHz

And Eugene's kernel but it was here before I flashed Eugene's kernel.
[Vibrant Android Development] shovelhead83:
Strange. Not sure then.

[Vibrant Android Development] biakuya_pr:
Neo thanks!!!

Everybody at work is so jealous at my ICS Vibrant i just cant stop showing it jajaja. Version 10.5 working great and eugenes kernel also doing a great job. I have never experience the mute/unmute bug and GPS has always lock. Best ICS ROM out by far. Vibrant has come to life again. I dont even care if samsung includes our device on the update list cause i know they wouldn't, they will try to make you buy the new toys regardless of the contract you're stuck in.
[Vibrant Android Development] airhop7:
Nice thanks Neo!
[Vibrant Android Development] airhop7:
Ack is it just me or my camera closes when I try to use capture video in mms:(
[Vibrant Android Development] tinyaznboi:
You're supposed to set it to minimum 200
[Vibrant Android Development] Burner2K0:
REALLY?!? 10.6 already?? I just downloaded 10.5 to install xD Dammit now to wait lol.
[Vibrant Android Development] brie987:
This is happening to me as well. Wont take any pictures just ask to wait or stop.

edit: Its working but took a very long time, had to just sit with it. Turned camera on and off and now its very responsive. I think it just needed a little bit of cooking. Thanks.
[Vibrant Android Development] TFordham:
It's a small file this time, and remember, from this point out, no need to wipe data. Just flash on top.

Keep em coming Neo!
[Vibrant Android Development] tinyaznboi:
me too ive already updated my sig to 10.6 cause im so excited :D im just sittin here waiting!
[Vibrant Android Development] Richcar:
Neo is there a big different in consistency between the two version for Eugene's.

[Vibrant Android Development] eugene373:
Please post kernel issues in my thread, however I've yet to have any issue.

You flash this with Odin correct? Because Odin won't let me do anything with a zip. I can't even see the file on my desktop.
[Vibrant Android Development] tinyaznboi:

[Vibrant Android Development] nuwanmw1988:

[Vibrant Android Development] SlakWReX:
The screen sometimes doesn't respond. Its happened twice I'm on Eugene's kernel.
[Vibrant Android Development] neobuddy89:
I have pmed Eugene to update a frequency

For now, you can set Minimum Frequency to 200 MHz should fix this.
[Vibrant Android Development] candyman123:
thank you for this glorious port to our vibrant!!!:):)

best android version ever. great visuals, great OS performance, great interface.

best feature for me (or maybe i'm speaking too soon), the memory management. On previous android 2.2 (zendroid rom), streaming music via bluetooth in the car, the music would skip or stop (i think due to cpu usage from other apps) at random times throughout the songs. Fast Reboot app fixed this. BUT on ICS, no fast reboot needed! music plays smooth and skip-free :D:D:D

One possible bug (or maybe its known issue throughout), if you have the vibrant PC-synced via USB and you press the 'turn off usb storage' option without safely ejecting the device on windows, the phone will freeze then turn itself off. At least that is what I experienced when I accidentally did that.

The only thing I will miss is wifi calling since there are places where i go that doesn't get great cellular signal. If you need someone to test for you I can do it!
[Vibrant Android Development] neobuddy89:
I, seriously, tried to port wifi calling from JVP Roms.

Also contacted segnaro and explodingboy for the same.

Even had tester from our FB Group community to test it.

Concluded, it's difficult to port on AOSP Roms.

ICS Passion v10.6 Full ROM / Update for v10 is up!

Small update for v10.5 users already uploaded few minutes ago. You may flash this to change kernels on v10.6.
